Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé relatif à la fabrication d'un câble supraconducteur, qui consiste à appliquer une pluralité de rubans supraconducteurs (4) sur un tube de préférence flexible (3), en une ou plusieurs couches, éventuellement avec séparation par des couches intermédiaires en plastique. Ensuite, une couche protectrice (5) en textile ou en papier est éventuellement appliquée, suivie d'un tube métallique (6). Plusieurs couches de film sont appliquées sur le tube métallique (6), quelques unes de ces couches étant revêtues de métal. Ensuite, on applique un certain nombre d'espaceurs de préférence hélicoïdaux (12) sur les couches, et on place enfin un écran (9) sur lesdits espaceurs (12). Le vide ainsi établi entre les tubes (6 et 9) permet de réduire au minimum la conductivité thermique alors que, simultanément, les films à revêtement métallique bloquent le rayonnement thermique. Par rapport à un cryostat classique, cette configuration permet de faire face à une augmentation du flux de chaleur en augmentant le nombre de couches de film et en insérant un nombre prédéterminé de couches revêtues d'aluminium servant à la fois de surfaces à potentiel égal et à température égale.

Abstract: The invention relates to a filtering apparatus, the operation of which is based on alternating filtering and flushing stages. The apparatus comprises one or several filter elements placed into a filter housing supported by a casing, the filter housing being provided with an inlet assembly for the liquid flow to be filtered, an outlet assembly for the filtered liquid flow, and a channel for flushing the filter elements with air. Further, the filter housing is arranged to be prefilled with liquid before the next filtering stage is initiated after the flushing. According to the invention, a filling channel is directed into the filter housing through the casing, the channel being provided with a valve, which closes the channel at the same time as the filter housing is opened, for example, for changing the filter elements. Closing may be automatic. The filter housing may include a removable cover and an axle bar supporting the filter elements and arranged between the cover and the valve and operated by a spring, the bar being moved from its place from the effect of the spring upon opening the cover at the same time as the spring closes the valve.

Abstract: A method and a system for improving recall of speech data in a computer speech system can include a plurality of speech cache management steps including providing a speech cache, receiving a speech system input and identifying a speech event in the received speech system input, the speech event comprising speech data. Subsequently, the speech data can be compared to pre-determined speech cache entry criteria; and, if the speech data meets one of the pre-determined entry criteria, at least one entry can be added to the speech cache, the at least one entry corresponding to the speech data. Additionally, the speech data can be compared to pre-determined speech cache exit criteria; and, if the speech data meets one of the pre-determined exit criteria, at least one entry can be purged from the speech cache, the at least one entry corresponding to the speech data. The entry criteria can include frequently used speech data, recently used speech data, and important speech data. Similarly, the exit criteria can include least frequently used speech data associated with each entry in the speech cache, least recently used speech data associated with each entry in the speech cache and least important speed data associated with each entry in the speech cache.

Abstract: A telecommunications system (10) has a radio access network comprising plural control nodes (26) and inter-control node links (Iur) for connecting the plural control nodes. A handover selection function (200) makes a selection regarding which of plural connections handled by the radio access network should have control thereof moved from a first control node (e.g., current SRNC) to another of the plural control nodes (e.g., target SRNC) to alleviate congestion on an overloaded one of the inter-control node links. The selection includes a determination of a cost for each of the connections carried by the overloaded link. The cost of each of the connections carried by the overloaded link is a product of a number of inter-control links involved in the connection and an inter-control link bandwidth required by the connection. The handover selection function particularly dtermines a most costly one of the connections carried by the overloaded link, and further determines a target one of the plural control nodes to which the control of the most costly connection can be handed over. In accordance with one aspect of the invention, the target control node is a control node involved in the candidate connection which is farthest from the first control node (e.g., current SRNC node).

Abstract: An injector, in particular a jet injector
for the intra-muscular, subcutaneous, or intra-dermal
delivery of a fluid medicament to a patient includes a cylindrical member
which has a closed end and an open end, and which is formed with a
compartment between these two ends. An injection tube extends from the
closed end through the cylindrical member and into the compartment. A
suction pump is connected in fluid communication with the compartment to
create a partial vacuum in the compartment when the open end of the
cylindrical member is held against the skin of the patient. Due to this vacuum,
skin of the patient is drawn into the compartment to position the tip of the
injection tube against the skin. Also, skin that is adjacent the tip is drawn by
the vacuum into the compartment. This stabilizes the skin around the
injection tube tip and thereby minimizes any movement of skin relative to the
tip during an injection of fluid medicament into the patient.
